| Annotation | Second paper in the annual International Research Conference on Social Security held in May 2003, Antwerp, and hosted by the International Social Security Association (ISSA); its theme being "Social security in a long life society". Speakers came from across the European Union. The Warden of Nuffield College, Oxford concludes that in reforming the pension system to meet new circumstances, sight should not be lost of the circumstances that gave rise to the welfare state in the first place. Atkinson's paper considers the economics of the private pension alternative, and whether people should continue to work. (RH). |
